It remains to be seen whether the sprain will cause Greenstone to miss any time. His injury comes at the perfect time from a recovery standpoint with the Commodores entering a bye week.

Colt Nichter filled in for Greenstone the majority of time in Vanderbilt’s 28-14 road win and, along with Rob Lohr, did a nice job of plugging the inside rushing lanes.

It seems farfetched that Greenstone would do any practicing during the three workouts the team has scheduled Tuesday through Thursday this week. Don’t be surprised if he’s back shortly after, given his toughness.

The bigger question will be if his buddy and fellow defensive tackle Adam Smotherman can finally get back on the practice field this week or next. This two-week window has been the target date that Smotherman wanted to come back from his ACL tear in the spring.
